US Rep (WA-8) Kim Schrier, a pediatrician, on the disinformation just posted on the CDC website.
RFK Jr. just changed the CDC website with his fictional anti-vax talking points — promoting the blatantly false claim that vaccines cause autism.
This is dangerous.
Parents, please trust your pediatricians, not RFK Jr., about getting your children vaccinated.

#LarrySummers making his mentee "needy" to coerce her for sex is part of a gen'l problem of women not getting equal footing in #economics. Often relegated to "care economy" issues, they cannot call out obvious fallacies in things like Gary Becker's "New Home Economics" w/o risking their careers.

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Dr. Jane Goodall, a tireless advocate for people, animals and the planet. An outspoken advocate for a smaller and thriving human population that is in balance with all life on Earth, Dr. Goodall leaves behind an immeasurable legacy of compassion and service.

Not unlike how we need to co-create (not be passive) If we use AI, in the most successful #parentalleave, parents are co-creating their parental leave with the parental leave of the other parent of their child and with both their employers and managers. www.fastcompany.com/91412778/wha...

I actually would not consider #JaneGoodall a “difficult woman”, but as a difficult woman myself I guess I’m not allowed to judge. Her sense of humor was first class. And she made the difficult seem possible, a real and rare skill?

Lots of talk today about the demise of BlueSky. For whatever it's worth, it's been a boon to indie publishers like us. Twitter and Facebook have pretty much silenced us, so the engagement here has, and continues to be, wonderful.
